Central London Alliance is attempting to
break a world record — the most people ever to
participate in a CPR relay. We need 4,000
people. We need you.
Why CPR?
Every three
minutes, someone in the
UK
dies from a cardiac
arrest. Fewer than 1 in
10
survive when it
happens
outside a hospital. But
one simple action
changes everything: if a
bystander performs CPR
within two minutes,
survival chances rise by
81% - and the
risk of
serious brain damage
drops by 95%..
Cardiac arrest
doesn't
discriminate. Every
week, 12 young,
otherwise
healthy people in the UK
lose their lives to
sudden cardiac death.
Knowing CPR costs
nothing.
Not knowing it can cost
everything.
What's
happening?
On
Tuesday 22 and Wednesday 23 September,
Central London Alliance
is attempting to set a
new world record for the
largest CPR relay ever
attempted. Every
participant must be
CPR-trained
- so even if we fall
short of the record,
thousands of people will
walk away with a skill
that could save a life.
This is Central
London Alliance's
mission: to make CPR
knowledge as common as
knowing your own phone
number, and to bring
workers, organisations
and communities across
Central London together
around something that
genuinely matters.
How to take part
Being involved takes four easy
steps:
1. Register your interest: Fill
out the form below to register your interest to
take part in the world record attempt.
2. Be CPR trained: If
you're already CPR-certified, you're
all set. If not, we'll send you a free
15-minute online course from the British Heart
Foundation — something you can do from your sofa
that could one day save a life. Once you have
completed your training, send us your
certificate.
3. Be available on 22 and 23 September: Be
part
of something you will talk about for years to
come. The attempt will be taking place in London
and we will share more information on how to
secure your spot in due course.
4. Spread the word: We need
4,000 participants, and the best way to do this
is one conversation at a time. Tell your
colleagues, your friends, your group chats. The
more people you bring, the bigger the impact.
Fill in the form below and we'll
take it from there — sending you your training
link, joining instructions, and everything else
you need for the day.
